The food train

 

I can go on and on forever about how I met two amazing girls in Australia when my friend and I were there last year. We still keep in touch and this afternoon Victoria came from out of town to eat, drink and chat for a good few hours and stay over. I decided to make tapas because it's a good combination with conversation and a nice glass of wine. It's simple and easy to put together quickly.

 

I bought a few different cheeses - one was a Camembert from the International Food Market.

The ham and the salami are also purchases from the market and are currently hanging from my curtain pole by the window - who needs curtains?

Mozzarella, tomato and olives are all good contributions to a tapas meal.

I made a nice guacamole with lots less creme fraiché and extra avocado, absolutely delicious!

I also made a hummus for the first time, Victoria liked it but I'm not sure what I think. I need to give it a few more tries before you get the recipe.

I bought a nice loaf of bread and crackers too!

 

The one thing that I was extra happy about was the filled filo dough experiment that was a big success! Ready for it?

 

Ingredients (for the filled filo dough packages; approx. 8 packages):

8 squares of filo dough -

2 fillets of chicken

1 small red onion

2 dl creme fraiché

1/2 red chili or after your own liking.

Olive oil for baking

 

Cut your chicken into small pieces and pre-fry in oil, season with salt and black pepper.

Heat your oven up to 200°C.

Cover your baking tray in baking paper.

When your chicken is cooked through let it cool down.

Chop your onion and chili finely and mix together with your creme fraiché.

Mix in your chicken.

Take out a sheet of filo dough and put 2 spoons of your chicken mixture on one side,

fold the dough over the mixture and into small packages.

Paint the top of the packages in olive oil.

Bake in the oven until golden brown and serve straight away.
